Linux Graphics Softwares & VPN on Linux

Hello,

I have recently got my hands on Linux , and I am pretty much serious about it. But i have a couple of questions to ask;

1- Kindly tell me the name of all graphics & multimedia softwares (like Adobe Photoshop, Macromedia Flash, Dreamweaver, Adobe Premiere, After Effects in Windows, as computer graphics are my passion), and the place or link from where i can download their correct and working RPMs. Dont refer me to GIMP and other pre-installed softwares in Linux as i have already worked on them.

2- Kindly give me info on ‘How to install & configure VPN on Linux Server and configure VPN on Linux & Windows Clients’, and if there are various methods then which is the best suited on RedHat 9.0 based server.
